It seems that PA refuses to use the maximum hardware volume of my sound card (Asus Xonar D1). As a result, the audio is very silent. I have the volume sliders in pavucontrol set to 100%, but PA only uses 40% (-20db) on the hardware mixer.

In order to get acceptable sound, I have to:

  pulseaudio -k
  sudo alsamixer
  [raise volume to 0db manually]

Isn't PA supposed to use 0db on the hardware by itself?
